Formatted text

An XML block (structured text) consists of various elements that are defined by the Exponential XML tags. The following elements are supported:

• Headings
• Bold text
• Italic text
• Numbered/ordered lists
• Bullet/unordered lists
• List items
• Embedded objects
• Hyperlinks
• Anchors
• Custom tags
• Literal text
• Tables
• Table rows
• Table header cells
• Table cells
• Lines and paragraphs

Please note that many of the items may include some of the other items.

The OE allows you to specify the properties of the elements (this can be done for all elements except for lines, list items and table rows). Most of the elements can be classified. This means that you can assign some value to the "class" attribute of their XML tags.

Please note that special characters can be also used. They can be inserted "as is" without the need of using XML tags.

The current element is determined by the text cursor position. The selected elements appear when you select a piece of the content. To perform an operation on the current or selected element you can use the OE toolbar and the context menu.
